A highly unusual Victorian ebonised revolving cigar stand and humidor, designed to store and display cigars in an elegant and practical manner.

The cylindrical carousel form rotates upon its base, providing access to eight individual cigar compartments arranged around the body.

Crafted with an attractive combination of ebonised and mahogany-toned finishes, the stand is enriched with decorative gilt metal mounts, embossed cigar rests, and ornate holders that reflect the refined smoking culture of the Victorian period.

The domed lid is surmounted by a turned finial, completing the architectural appearance of the piece.

Designed for both storage and presentation, examples of revolving cigar stands such as this were intended for use in gentleman’s smoking rooms, libraries, and private clubs.

Today they remain highly sought after by collectors of smoking antiques, treen, and unusual Victorian accessories.

A distinctive and decorative piece that combines practicality, craftsmanship, and period charm.
